The 2000 model year e39 M5 got a few face lifts over the prior year. These cars are easily identifiable with the circular surrounds in the headlamps and the auto leveling bi-xenon low beams. These became a BMW M5 signature element more affectionately known in the BMW e39 M5 community as "angel eyes". And they look really cool, especially at night. Many e39 m5 owners upgrade them with a more color matched LED from aftermarket parts suppliers so they look like the same as the xenon headlights.Some other great features that BMW M engineers put into this great car for the year 2000 was three position memory control for their awesome electric powered front seats. Other electronic gadgetry that was upgraded included a six compact disk audio system - the only drawback being that the head unit was in the trunk.
Of particular contention is BMW's PDC for e39 m5 - Park Distance Control. These used e39 m5's are actually quite big as cars go - however, they are quite easy to park. Yet, if you shank one of their beautiful wheels, you have created quite a problem for yourself as any off-balancing in any wheel is going to create quite a shudder at high speed and wear out those high performance tires. Fuel economy remains quite low for a 2000 e39 m5. But what can you expect for a high performance sedan that seats four, no make that five adults in total comfort at 155 mph? Rain sensing wipers were a very popular option in the 2000 model year and they work quite well with a low and high setting. Another fun and useful feature introduced in the 2000 bmw m5 is an auto down-tilting passenger mirror when the transmission is placed into reverse gear.
Safety features included the first application of tubular head airbags on both sides of the car, which come out of the ceiling.Note that some owners have noticed even firmer suspension tuning from the factory in this model year compared with previous models. Many of the performance tuners really got their game on by this year and there were many useful, yet expensive modifications available such as chips and other engine mods. All said, a 2000 BMW m5 remained the 'businessman's express' for this year - relatively quiet, very comfortable and unequalled in power and handling. Arriving in this car will convey modesty - but to the knowning eye, an appreciation for what remains one of the best values in the performance aftermarket used car space.
